After deploying the dbt package, you will need to create a profiles.yml file on the machine you are using to run Elementary.
This file contains the connection details for the CLI to access your DWH.
Here are the detailed steps for using Elementary on dbt cloud:
Deploy dbt package in dbt cloud.
Use the command dbt run-operation elementary.generate_elementary_cli_profile on the dbt cloud interface to generate a profile.
Copy the profile to a file you create on the machine where you would run the CLI: ~/.dbt/profiles.yml
Install the CLI and run edr from that machine.
Use to create the profile, this guide install the CLI, and run it.
Elementary requires connection details and credentials to connect to the data warehouse.
These are configured in a connection profile using a file named profiles.yml.
We recommend creating a dedicated database, or at least a schema.
